How did you prepare for the interview?

Read up on ethics (U of W ethics page -- good), read interview feedback from previous years (I was asked some of the exact same questions), read a book on Healh Care Policy, read CU website.

What impressed you positively?

Everyone was SO nice and laid-back. The students seemed really cooperative instead of competitive, so that was nice. The new Fitzsimmons campus is going to be awesome, but it's still under construction.

What impressed you negatively?

They said last year the 2005 1st-years would spend all there years on the new campus. This year, they pushed it back saying it would be the 2006 first years. Since funding is caught on in legislation, who knows when the new campus with REALLY be open. Also, they're implementing a new systems-based curriculum in 2005 which sounds great (it's what a lot of other schools have already done), but I don't know if I want to be the guinea pig for CU's first year on the curriculum.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The interviews are FIRST THING in the morning (9am and 10am). I thought I would have a little more time to collect and calm myself throughout the day, but nope ... they hit you with the hard part right up front.
